    Seems it is up and running: https://uradmonitor.com/tools/dashboard-04/?open=13000214

    The unit is online.

    What seems to be the problem?

    Can you post what you see on all the screens of your KIT1 unit?

    Keep it outdoors for a few days so its internal auto-calibration mechanism kicks in.

    Hi Richard, you can also use the USB command “default” to do a factory reset , if needed.

    The FAN has a dual purpose:
    – it pushes air through a narrow path inside the PM sensor
    – it pushes air across all sensitive elements

    While an open case (A3 Stevenson shield) can take advantage of the natural air convection, wind, or general air movement, the PM sensor will still need a controlled airflow.

    So to make this work, the only option to lower noise is to reduce its frequency, using the sleep mode option.

    On the other hand, the noise itself is ~35dB near the unit, quite low. If you have the A3 you can evaluate that yourself.

    Gopher’s right. You might want to request a RMA. The MOX sensor is very low cost, but sadly we need to arrange shipping the unit back and forth. No other way around this.

    If you can have it installed in a fixed location, there are settings to compensate all its parameters. We can redo your unit’s temperature compensation to have better accuracy.

    Not all the parameters are yet implemented in the “expProtocol”. It needs an update in this regard. Since there are no particular requirements on the order, you might want to do this yourself, and push your contribution on the github code.

    What do you think?

    define ID_PM1_UGCM “11” // optional: particulate matter in micro grams per cubic meter

    I’d say yes, this is possible. A year is a lot and there can be some drift, regardless of the devices being energised or not. Get them running together and let me know here or via supoort email to check the calibration parameters for the two. Some adjustments are possible.

    You’ll get an AQI value in the summary API return (/devices).

    Ok so apparently we have the conclusion, here’s the input from one of the NDIR CO2 sensor manufacturers:

    in Sauna, high temperatures and high humidity will affect the test result, even worse, will damage the CO2 performance

    I believe replacing the sensor will not help. Simply it will not work ok in high temps.

    I opened a discussion with one of the NDIR sensor manufacturers, explaining these requirements to them. In short, they said the high temperature is problematic.

    Your idea with the buffer tube is good, and we did something similar in the past, when several A3s were installed on buses and wanted to have some protection from the high pressure jets used to wash them.

    But on PM2.5/PM10 readings there were two issues: 1) a decrease in amplitude, compared to units running at the outside. 2) a delay in registering the elevated readings, as the air had to slowly travel the tube.

    2) is not a problem for you. With enough time, 1) should reach the real value too. So if you can have this run for let’s say, half an hour, you should get close to the real value found in the hot area. You’ll need a tube + a fan, to force the air from the sauna all the way through.

    Planning on doing this anywhere soon? Let me know if we can help.

    Hi,

    I just looked over this . For CO2, your unit uses the MIX6010 from Mixsen, very similar to the MH-Z19B presented by Wolferl. These are both classic NDIR single beam CO2 sensors.

    The results you are getting are strange. I suggest you return the unit and I’ll upgrade it to a different, dual-beam CO2 sensor . See http://www.uradmonitor.com/rma
